Drawback Questions We Hear Often
What is duty drawback?
A refund of duties paid on imported goods that are subsequently exported from Canada — whether exported as-is or after further processing, subject to program conditions.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Generally, a drawback claim must be filed within four years of the release date of the imported goods. Timing rules vary for certain goods, so contact us early.
What if I’m not both the importer and the exporter?
Where more than one party is eligible to claim, the claimant needs waivers from the other eligible parties — this is where K32A and K32B certificates apply. We prepare these as part of the claim.
How are claims filed now?
Drawback claims are submitted electronically through the CARM Client Portal. We prepare and file claims on your behalf once portal delegation is in place — see our CARM Resources for how delegation works.
